Challenger criticizes Price's support of spending limit bill
By Tara Duncan
''Staff Writer
The decision by U.S. Rep. David
. Price, D-N.C, to vote for the Campaign
Spending Limit and Election Reform
- Act two weeks ago has triggered criti
.cism from his Republican opponent,
Vicky Goudie, who characterized the

bill as "only a Band-Aid" on a "serious
wound."
Goudie, Price'schal lenger in the 1 992
election, said Sunday that although she
agreed campaign and interest spending
should be cut, the congressional reform
bill was not the answer.
"(High campaign spending) should
make politicians ashamed of all the
money spent on campaigns, when we
look at the homelessness in America,"
she said.
"I am a 'citizen legislator,' and look
ing at this bill, I don't feel real comfort
able. (Congress) is trying to cover up
the very serious wound of campaign
spending with only a Band-Aid."
The reform act would set a voluntary
spending cap for congressional races of
$600,000, only $200,000 of which could
come from political action committee
contributions. The bill was approved by
the House April 9 and will go before the
Senate within the next two weeks, al
though President Bush has threatened
to veto the Democrat-sponsored act.
Political reform has become a major
issue in the 1992 congressional cam
paign, in the wake of the House Bank
scandal and growing voter dissatisfac
tion with the electoral process.
Although Price admits that this re
form bill isn't perfect, the three-term
representative believes it is a signifi
cant step in the right direction that should
have been taken a long time ago, said
Rachel Perry, Price's press secretary.
Throughout his career in Congress,
Price has been a vocal supporter of
campaign reform, she said.
But Goudie said Price, a Duke Uni
versity political science and public
policy professor, has abandoned voters
by straying from guidelines he set for
himself in each of his election efforts.
Before each of his campaigns, Price
publicly has asked his opponents to
keep spending under $400,000. But each
time, his opponents have declined, and
Price himself has ignored that limit.
Perry said.
"He has always proposed spending

limits and debates
in order to focus
on the issues,"
Perry said. "He
wants to practice
what he preaches."
In 1986, Price
ran against Repub
lican incumbent
Bill Cobey, who
had the support of
Jesse Helms' Con
gressional Club.
Again in 1988, Price faced a Congres
sional Club candidate in Republican
Tom Fetzer. Both of these campaign
were very expensive because of the
Club's financial capability. Perry said.
"The Club set the tone and the cost of
the campaign," she said.
Price did not run against a Congres
sional Clubcandidate in 1 990, but actu
ally spent more than in his two previous
efforts. John Carrington, Price's oppo
nent two years ago, financed his cam
paign without PACor Republican Party
contributions. In his effort to counter
Carrington's wealth. Price spent
$793,291, Perry said.
"He has been forced to run competi
tively," Perry said. "You don't spend
money if you don't have to."
Price has not decided whether he will
propose limits to Goudie, Perry said.
Goudie, who is running a low-cost
campaign, has not decided if she will
accept proposed spending limits.
"Right now, I don't want to say that
I would agree to accepting limits," she
said. "He may have said he wanted the
limits in the past, but he didn't try to
keep them."
